Bandoh is quite a well known mechanic in Japan. He has worked
with Keiichi Tsuchiya1 as advisors in PlayStation games
-- the "Tokyo Capital High Speed" series. To my knowledge Bandoh went to
South East Asia to help the Toyota team with tuning the Caldina racing
vehicles. (Hong Kong driver Charles Kwan won the 1997 S.E. Asia Touring
Car championship 1997 in his BMW 320i.)

Information Page for a brief introduction of Drift King Tsuchiya.

The Bandoh shop has become a popular hangout for Japanese boy racers.
The pictures below show Silvia S13 and 180sx vehicles with SEALAZONE bodykits.
Wheels used are Enkei RS III multi-piece wheels. Enkei has two models
: one for front and one for rear, as the rear wheel has significantly more
offset (how much the wheel is from its mount. e.g. for rear, the
more the offset, the longer the distance between the two rear wheels)

At this stage I haven't seen a SEALAZONE bodykit nor tuning package
for S14 Silvia. This may be due to the presence of the Kei-Office
brand, named after Drift King Tsuchiya. However, Bandoh has worked with
RS-R to build a Nismo Silvia for
JGTC GT300 class. (see the big Bandoh word on the top of the
wind screen?)
In my humble opinion, the SEALAZONE package makes the S13 look gorgeous!
Bandoh has made the most stylish S13 I have ever come across! Already
several readers have claimed the SZ13 to be the most beautiful S13 Silvia
they've seen ! Note that the silver car shown here is tuned mostly
for street use, as the suspension is not height adjustible. (height
adjustible units available)
